Paul Truong (AKA Monocubed)

I'm a Creative Technologist at Google and like to create things with equal parts design & code.

The more I learn from these disciplines, the more I appreciate how similar their processes are.

More importantly, I've come to realise that the most significant results are cultivated in the space where these two meet.

This blog delves into this concept.

Elsewhere, you'll find me chirping on twitter, snapping on Instagram (currently viewable via tumblr and flickr) and uploading work-in-progress on dribbble to name a few destinations.

I also speak occasionally on subjects related to the modern browser - for enquiries please email paul@monocubed.com.

About
Lab:
  • Trace #2 ~ Tinsel

This is another mutation from the pointillism example. As these sketches are all using data provided by the pixels of an image (i.e. a jpg of the Google logo), I’ve decided to call the series “Trace”. The pixels of the image are analysed during each draw cycle (ignoring the white background) which provides x, y and colour data. Lines are drawn away from the “traced” pixel’s position at random lengths and angles which after a minute or so looks like…tinsel?
